Roadwalked it to the northern terminus to preserve our sanity. Just not into plodding along on the overgrown Trace no more. Sunny and clear Sunday morning where BH met us at the trailhead and whisked us to breakfast in Maysville. I can't bear another muddy creek, the water has lost its taste. And if I ever see another poison I plant again, it'll be too soon. No more traipsing over logs or barbed wires. No more negotiating ATV or motorbike tracks full of sludge water. Horse and human prints do not match. No more disppearing general stores or restaurants. A final road walk and hopefully the last of my trekking career. I am too old for roadside antics, and not interested in the behavior of cars as they gawk at human travellers with backpacks. I am not just "hitching around" gentlemen, I have ReTraced it 08 style! |
